Electrify Waverley!

Waverley Council has electrified!
On 7 December 2022, Waverley Council was one of the first NSW council to implement changes to its Development Control Plan to require new residential buildings be fitted with all-electric indoor appliances (cooktops, ovens and internal space heaters) to improve indoor air quality and local health outcomes. These changes paved the way for other NSW councils to follow suit. If you would like to receive updates about this campaign, please sign this petition.

Why is this important?

All-electric, gas-free homes and businesses are: 

  • Good for the climate, as less energy is needed to heat and cool electric, efficient homes and businesses, reducing our reliance on polluting gas. 
  • Good for our health, as electric appliances like stoves, heaters and cooktops don’t produce the harmful toxins and pollution that gas ones do
  • Cheaper to run, meaning lower energy bills, especially for renters and people on low incomes
